And the moral of the story is watch where you are driving and don't hit potholes

Well my handy dandy calculator shows that 9.5 +15 is more aggressive than 10+25.

Too much in that pic. Like around -4 to -5 ish. eventually I got it down to -2.xx all around, couldn't go lower than that. car got destroyed shortly after that so no pics in that state. but my fenders were pulled. It looked pretty proper after fixing the camber tho.
